Talk:Yilan

BLU Burn

Easy fight with a RDM, GEO, BLU, BLU with Apururu (UC) and August trusts.

• BLUs should gear for nuking and set light nukes. Personally I set all of them so I could spam all of them.
  • For reference these are Magic Hammer (works to restore MP and will be needed obviously), Blinding Fulgor, Retinal Glare, Rail Cannon, and Diffusion Ray.
  • Either target the add(s) or face appropriately to hit both with the conal nukes.
  • Niburu clubs with good melee gear are a boon as you can Flash Nova his face in.
    • Behold the power of your Weatherspoon Ring!

GEO does magical stuffs, RDM does RDM stuffs. --Spicyryan (talk) 02:11, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

You can also just take BLU, idris GEO, Amchuchu, and trusts then laugh at him as lolIdrisEZgaemizEZ --Spicyryan (talk) 03:00, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

The above strategy works absolutely fine now for a BLU solo with trusts. Just don't stand in front and get doomed like a noob, keep a DT set on hand for terror, and you're in hardly any danger. --Mudcake (talk) 09:26, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

Attempted to BLU it up with /RDM and trusts, got him to 10% and got a little overwhelmed keeping up on adds. Would likely be doable on a repeat attempt, as I've never tried him before. However, my second attempt I decided to check out /war and spamming CDC, which netted a fairly easy win, with trusts. 1200JP gift/decent gear (Hep. Sapara +1, a mix of ambu+1/gear from t1 ru'aun/reisen, HTMB, no omen, no +1 abjuration gear) --Ulgar (talk) 20:25, 1 November 2018 (EDT)

BLM Burn

Easy fight with a SCH, BLM, August, Amchuchu, Apururu, & Anything(2nd WHM trust suggested)

• Use Fusion and burst with Fire.
  • Takes 2-3 Fusions to kill him.
• Have the popper cast for hate on pet, this way WHMs can pull hate with cure
  • The pet should pop when Yilan is around 20% HP. One more Fusion will kill him.

This requires a strong BLM. Well, but not excellent, augmented Merlinic gear, Lathi, and all the proper accessories. If you need a lathi, basically, hop off of BLM and then hop on SCH and invite a strong BLM friend to help you. This does not require stratagem recast gifts or any JP on SCH. Firestorm1 is enough for a good BLM here. Maybe someday I'll make a commentary video for lowmanning this ;)

Solo

Very Easy solo for RNG/NIN with Trusts.

Moderately difficult for solo RNG/NIN without trusts.

Here is a video without trusts:

PUP Solo

Very Easy PUP/DNC Su5 Master Level 20 Zeid II and Shantotto for Light MB. After that whatever makes you feel good for support. I used Apururu and Koru-Moru and Selh'teus for AOE heals when he gets annoying. He once Terrorized me for over a minute.

Automaton setup: Valoredge Head/Sharpshot Frame Magniplug I/II - Attuner - Strobe II Turbo Charger I/II - Drum Magazine - Truesights Optic-Fiber I/II - Auto-Repair Kit IV - Coiler II Maneuvers - Fire/Light/Wind

I'm sure there might be better attachment setups possibly, but this really took him out fast. Quickly switch to his dragons as he spawns them. I had the automaton help kill his little dragons to eliminate him leveling up further. -- 21:26, 19 February 2022 Apexstar
